Asa:
Oh no, the performances right through Jan were dreadful and Wenger was playing for his career at that point.
But in terms of 'bottle' or 'attitude' we've been alright this season. What we needed was the injection of quality that Rosicky and Walcott have given us over the past month the combination of which translated into results. And, like lagos said, the return of fullbacks helped massively.
If you think about it, our form pretty much dipped the day after our last remaining fullback got injured and returned pretty much as soon as Sagna/Gibbs started playing well.
